Tween 80
72 %
(1:2)
9.6 ml
Surfactant
4.8 ml
Co-surfactant

Method of preparation:
The given ingredients were taken as per their quantity.
First of all, surfactant (Tween 80) and co-surfactant (PEG-400) were mixed
using propeller stirrer.
Oleic acid was taken in an another 50 ml beaker.
Surfactant co-surfactant mixture was added in to oleic acid with
continuous stirring by propeller stirrer.
Then water was added drop wise in that mixture along with continuous
stirring.
